How can I share a video only with a specific family member?

Help! I made a video for my BILs surprise bday and sent to my sister. She opened it using the Google gmail and it opened in their shared account. Did I just ruin the surprise? She said she deleted it...

I went to the video and hit share link to her whatsapp account. She said it gave her the option to open in Dropbox or Gmail and she did gmail without thinking. Does it automatically send a notification to her Gmail that I sent something? I'm so in trouble!!!
